October 27

Today I woke up I think at 7. Then I got up and had chocolate and pancakes with meat for breakfast. Then we went to church cuz we had to be there at 9 to practice. So we took the taxi to church and then we practiced our song. I sang a solo part :/ it was nerve wreaking.... But I got thru it :) dad didn't get the pulpit until like 1130 (service started at 10) because it was 10th anniversary meetings and so bro Vladimir talked for a long time. And then dad talked about missions for a long time too. By the time dad started preaching, it was probably after 12 and when he finished was 2. He preached on The Dynamics of Marriage. After service, we had tea and sweets and then had young people's service at 3. Dad spoke and then John got up and greeted the people and dad interviewed him about his life. Then dad looked at me and I vehemently shook my head no so he wouldn't make me go up too and so he just talked about me. And I pretty much kinda cried. Lol. Then we all went to McDonald's. Which was fun. I ordered cheese sauce stuff in Russian. Which was fun. Lol. Christina and Karin came with me so I would have a backup. Lol. Christina just took video. Lol. The cashier just looked at me like I was an idiot. Lol. After McDonald's, we went to te stadium and walked around. And John was racing with a bunch of guys and fell and broke his tooth.... Just kidding. But he got super winded and I had to run and buy him a water. That's the bad thing of traveling with John. I worry about him. I worry about dad too. Especially when he gets up behind the pulpit and says he didn't sleep at all. Anyways, after the park, we went back go the tabernacle and had sweets and tea. And Levon interviewed me about life at home. So I did end up speaking. Lol. Then, we went to Julia's and had coke and saw her. And they sang happy birthday to John and I for some reason. Lol. And gave us a bag full of candy..... Lol. And Julia gave me a small gift and a gift for dianna. Then we went and dropped John at the hotel where he is staying tonight. With dad and bro Milko. Then we took Eugene to his house because he missed his bus. I pretty much slept the whole way. And then we got there and I really had to use the w/c really bad (since I drank a LOT of coke at Julia's) so pasha, Christina, Eugene (of course) and I went into Eugene's house. Christina and pasha wanted coffee so I had one too (since I'm trying to stay up tonight since it will be easier to just not sleep rather than waking up at 4) except I don't like coffee so I put cold water in it and just chugged it. And then they were laughing at me for that too. Lol. So we four were sitting inside and drinking coffee and laughing (quietly so as to not wake up my future sister in law) and then Eugene brought out his German flag and we all broke loose into giggle fits. Lol. It was fun :) then we decided to go out to the van to go to Leanna's (who i found out today is actually Lena and I've had it wrong the whole time. But to not confuse you, I will keep calling her Leanna) since Andrew was waiting in the van and we were supposed to just be using the w/c. And he said if we took too long he would just leave. But he didn't :) so we were safe :) but i had to say goodbye to Eugene :( it was sad. I hate goodbyes!!!! I wish that we never had to say them!! I think that there needs to be planned a Canada trip. And Eugene, pasha, Christina, Leanna, and Levon need to come. That would be the awesomest time ever!!!!!!! I would like it very much. That's the problem with staying at someone's house. You get close to them and it is hard to leave. Anyways, we drove with Andrew back to Leanna's house. We arrived at like quarter after twelve. When we arrived, i had to say bye to pasha. It was sad. I invited him to Canada and he invited me back to Ukraine any time. Lol. We are going to pull an all nighter since its no sense sleeping for one hour so I'm posting now instead of before I sleep. Lol. Since the day is technically over. Lol. 

Pasha and John (Auntie Debbie I told him to lose the hat and he just laughed at me. Lol)
